The light softens, the reflector boards bring a glow back into the leaves, and the picture becomes almost abstract, the green of the plant against the warm reds of the land.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe welwitschia is a living fossil. It grows only two leaves in its whole life, which split and fray over the centuries, and some plants are more than a thousand years old. It survives in the Namib by catching the fog that drifts in from the Atlantic. For Koos van der Lende it is the perfect solitary subject. On plains where there is nothing for kilometres, one plant becomes the whole picture, and the harsh land around it tells its story. He returned to the welwitschia over many years, near the Brandberg, in the Namib Naukluft Park and close to Swakopmund, often bringing the low evening light back into the leaves with reflector boards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Almost like an abstract image.”\u003cbr\u003e— Koos van der Lende\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArtist: Koos van der Lende\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Solitary Survivor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignature Collection, limited edition of 25, signed and numbered, with a certificate of authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnly 25 prints will ever be made, across all sizes together.
